Mounting device and electronic system

Abstract

This invention provides a mounting device and an electronic system. The electronic system includes an electronic device and a mounting device. The mounting device includes a mounting bracket, a rail member, and a sliding member. The mounting bracket is mounted to the electronic device. The rail member is rotatably and pivotally connected to the mounting bracket. The rail member has a rail, and the rail has a first end and a second end. The sliding member is slidably disposed at the mounting bracket and has a protrusion portion capable of sliding along the rail. When the rail member rotates relative to the mounting bracket and the rail pushes the protrusion portion to move from the first end to the second end, the sliding member is inserted into a fastening hole of the electronic system.

 a mounting bracket having a pivot defined thereon and having a mounting hole formed along the pivot, the mounting bracket being mounted to the electronic device; 
 a rail member pivotally connected to the pivot, the rail member having a through hole and a rail, the rail having a first end and a second end, the distance between the first end and the pivot being smaller than the distance between the second end and the pivot; 
 a sliding member slidably disposed at the mounting bracket, the sliding member having a protrusion portion capable of sliding along the rail; 
 a fastening member disposed at the mounting bracket along the pivot, the fastening member having:
 a stop plate; and 
 a column for passing through the through hole to be inserted into the mounting hole, one end of the column fixed on a surface of the stop plate, and another end of the column engaging with the mounting hole, to prevent the rail member from being separated from the mounting bracket; and 
 
 a pulling portion formed at the rail member, the pulling portion is operated to rotate the rail member; 
 wherein when the protrusion portion is located at the first end, the rail member rotates relative to the pivot, and the rail pushes the protrusion portion to move from the first end to the second end while the pulling portion contacts the mounting bracket, the sliding member is driven to slide away from the pivot and to protrude from the mounting bracket thus to allow the sliding member to be fastened to the fastening hole. 
 
     
     
       2. The mounting device according to  claim 1 , wherein the mounting device is mounted to the electronic device in a screwed mode. 
     
     
       3. The mounting device according to  claim 1 , wherein the mounting bracket further comprises a limiting portion for limiting the sliding member to slide along a direction relative to the mounting bracket. 
     
     
       4. An electronic system having a fastening hole, the electronic system comprising:
 an electronic device; and 
 a mounting device including:
 a mounting bracket having a pivot defined thereon and having a mounting hole formed along the pivot, the mounting bracket being mounted to the electronic device; 
 a rail member pivotally connected to the pivot, the rail member having a through hole and a rail, the rail having a first end and a second end, the distance between the first end and the pivot being smaller than the distance between the second end and the pivot; 
 a sliding member slidably disposed at the mounting bracket, the sliding member having a protrusion portion capable of sliding along the rail; 
 a fastening member disposed at the mounting bracket along the pivot, the fastening member having:
 a stop plate; and 
 a column for passing through the through hole to be inserted into the mounting hole, one end of the column fixed on a surface of the stop plate, and another end of the column engaging with the mounting hole, to prevent the rail member from being separated from the mounting bracket; and 
 
 a pulling portion formed at the rail member, the pulling portion is operated to rotate the rail member; 
 wherein when the protrusion portion is located at the first end, the rail member rotates relative to the pivot, and the rail pushes the protrusion portion to move from the first end to the second end while the pulling portion contacts the mounting bracket, the sliding member is driven to slide away from the pivot and to protrude from the mounting bracket thus to allow the sliding member to be fastened to the fastening hole. 
 
 
     
     
       5. The electronic system according to  claim 4 , wherein the mounting device is mounted to the electronic device in a screwed mode. 
     
     
       6. The electronic system according to  claim 4 , wherein the mounting bracket further comprises a limiting portion for limiting the sliding member to slide along a direction relative to the mounting bracket. 
     
     
       7. The mounting device according to  claim 3 , further comprising a guiding groove defined between the limiting portion and the mounting bracket, wherein the sliding member is moveable disposed within the guiding groove. 
     
     
       8. The mounting device according to  claim 1 , wherein the pulling portion and the rail member laminate in different plane. 
     
     
       9. The mounting device according to  claim 1 , wherein an included angle is formed between the pulling portion and the rail member. 
     
     
       10. The mounting device according to  claim 1 , wherein the pulling portion has a laminating segment coupled to the rail member and a tilting segment extending from the laminating segment, and when the pulling portion contacts the mounting bracket, the laminating segment laminates on a surface of the mounting bracket and an included angle is formed between the tilting segment and a laminated surface of the mounting bracket. 
     
     
       11. The electronic system according to  claim 6 , further comprising a guiding groove defined between the limiting portion and the mounting bracket, wherein the sliding member is moveable disposed within the guiding groove. 
     
     
       12. The electronic system according to  claim 4 , wherein the pulling portion and the rail member laminate in different plane. 
     
     
       13. The electronic system according to  claim 4 , wherein an included angle is formed between the pulling portion and the rail member. 
     
     
       14. The electronic system according to  claim 4 , wherein the pulling portion has a laminating segment coupled to the rail member and a tilting segment extending from the laminating segment, and when the pulling portion contacts the mounting bracket, the laminating segment laminates on a surface of the mounting bracket and an included angle is formed between the tilting segment and a laminated surface of the mounting bracket.
